DON QUIXOTE VS. CITY HALL When an American gets mad, he says "where's my Gun". When a Canadian gets pissed off he says "Where is my pen, I'm going to send a letter to the EDITOR". When the EDITOR won't publish his letter he sets up his own BLOG page. When I received enough support to get a Council Seat the dogma of the establishment became : "Better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside pissing in." (Only time will tell !)

Backyard chickens take flight in rural areas
By Richard Rolke - Vernon Morning Star Published: March 07, 2013 1:00 AM
Food security has been given a boost in the North Okanagan. Regional District of North Okanagan directors adopted
bylaw changes Wednesday that will permit hens in residential and rural
zones in the five electoral areas. The previous rules didn't allow for
chickens as a food source. "You can have chickens in Vernon and Kelowna but it was
ridiculous because you couldn't in the rural areas," said Jackie
Pearase, rural Enderby director. The bylaw covers issues such as odour and the
construction and location of hen houses. Roosters will not be allowed as
a way of reducing noise for neighbours. RDNO staff have also developed best management practices on keeping chickens.
